2.1 Integers and the Number Line This is called a. All of the points represent. Examples of integers: Positive Numbers: Negative Numbers: Zero: Opposites: **Another name for opposite is Additive Inverse because opposites always add to zero **What is a real-world example of when negative numbers are used? Examples: Write an integer for each situation. Together: You Try: 1. 500 feet below sea level 4. 32 feet under the ground 2. A temperature increase of 12 degrees 5. A weight loss of 6 pounds 3. A loss of $240 4 6. 8 weeks after birth

2.2-2.3 Adding and Subtracting Integers Activator: In football, forward progress is represented by a positive integer. Being pushed back is represented by a negative integer. Suppose on the first play a team loses 5 yards and on the second play they lose 2 yards. Use this number line to help you answer the questions. a. What integer represents the total yardage on the two plays? b. Write an addition sentence that describes this situation. The addition sentence we wrote above is an example of adding two integers with the same sign. Notice that the sign of the sum is the same as the sign of the addends. Rule for Adding integers with the same sign: Examples: 1. Find -4 + (-5) 2. Find -2 + (-3) 3. Find 7 + 5 4. Find 8 + 2 You Try: 5. Find 4+5 6. Find 7+7 7. Find -5 + (-4) 8. Find (-3) + (-6) 5

We can use a number line to help us add integers with different signs. **Remember on a number line, positive numbers move to the right and negative numbers move to the left. 7 + (-4) Step 1: Start at Zero Step 2: Move 7 units to the right Step 3: From there, move 4 units to the left 2 + (-3) Step 1: Start at Zero Step 2: Move 2 units to the right Step 3: From there, move 3 units to the left Let s look at these two sums and compare them. 7 + (-4)= 2 + (-3)= What do you notice about the signs of the sums? Rule for adding integers with different signs: Examples: First, state whether the sum will be positive or negative, then find each sum. 1. -8 + 3 2. 10 + (-4) 3. 7 + (-11) 4. -3 + 9 6

You Try: First, state whether the sum will be positive or negative, then find each sum. 4. -2 + 9 5. -9 + 10 6. 8 + (-15) 7. -8 + (-9) Adding More than Two Integers Two different methods: 1. 2. Examples: 1. 9 + (-3) + (-9) 2. -4 + 6 + (-3) + 9 3. 8 + (-6) + 2 You Try: 4. -8 + (-4) + 8 5. 6 + (-3) + (-9) + 2 6. -6 + 5 + (-10) Summarize: Which method do you prefer and why? 7

Practice Problems First, state whether the sum will be positive or negative, then find each sum. 1. -2 + (-4) 6. -10 + (-5) 2. -4 + (-5) 3. 12 + (-2) 4. -11 + 9 5. 15 + 10 Find each sum. 11. -4 + (-1) 12. -5 + (-2) 13. -4 + (-6) 14. -3 + (-8) 15. -7 + (-8) 16. -12 + (-4) 17. -9 + (-14) 18. -15 + (-6) 19. -11 + (-15) 7. 7 + (-2) 8. 11 + (-3) 9. 8 + (-5) 10. 9 + (-12) 20. -23 + (-43) 21. 8 + (-5) 22. 6 + (-4) 23. 3 + (-7) 24. 4 + (-6) 25. -15 + 6 26. -5 + 11 27. 18 + (-32) 28. -45 + 19 Find each sum. 29. 6 + (-9) + 9 30. 7 + (-13) + 4 31. -9 + 16 + (-10) 32. -12 + 18 + (-12) 33. 14 + (-9) + 6 34. 28 + (-35) + 4 8

Subtracting Integers Recall: What is an additive inverse? (Hint: think back to opposites) Subtracting integers is very similar to adding integers. To subtract an integer, you add its additive inverse. Keep-Change-Change Example: 6 8 Using the additive inverse, 6 8 is the same as Let s use the number line to help us. Step 1: Start at zero Step 2: Move 6 units to the right (positive) Step 3: Move 8 units to the left (negative) You Try: -3 5 Using the additive inverse, -3 5 is the same as Step 1: Start at zero Step 2: Move units to the ( ) Step 3: Move units to the ( ) Find each difference: 1. 8 13 2. -4 10 3. 9 14 9

Now, let s try subtracting a negative number 7 (-3) Using the additive inverse, this is the same as 7 + (+3) Keep-Change-Change Therefore we can conclude that subtracting a negative number is the same thing as Use the number line to verify this rule with -2 (-4) Examples: Find each difference. 1. 15 (-4) 2. -10 (-7) 3. -13 (-9) You Try: Find each difference. 4. 20 (-15) 5. -1 (-10) 6. -16 (-3) Evaluate algebraic expressions using subtraction You can use the same rule for subtracting using algebraic expressions. Examples: 1. Evaluate x (-6) if x = 12 2. Evaluate s t if s = -9 and t = -3 3. Evaluate p + q r if p = -11, q = 6, and r = -12 You Try: 4. Evaluate m (-2) if m = 4 5. Evaluate x y if x = -14 and y = -2 6. Evaluate a b + c if a = 15, b = 5, and c = -8 10

During January, the normal high temperature in Duluth, Minnesota is 16 F and the normal low temperature is -2 F. Find the difference between the temperatures. 33. The highest point in California is Mount Whitney, with an elevation of 14,494 feet. The lowest point is Death Valley, with an elevation of -282 feet. Find the difference in the elevations. 11

2.4-2.5 Multiplying and Dividing Integers RECALL: Multiplication is the same thing as repeated addition. So 3(-5) is the same thing as (-5) + (-5) + (-5) RECALL: The commutative property of multiplication tells us that 3(-5) is the same thing as -5(3) Rule: The product of two integers with different signs is NEGATIVE. Examples: Find each product. 1. 5(-6) 2. -4(16) You Try: Find each product. 3. 8(-12) 4. -9(11) We know that the product of two positive integers is positive (Ex. 2 x 4 = 8). What is the sign of the product of two negative numbers? Let s use the pattern below to find out (-4)(2) = -8 (-4)(1) = -4 (-4)(0) = 0 (-4)(-1) = 4 (-4)(-2) = 8 Rule: The product of two integers with the same sign is POSITIVE. Examples: 1. -6(-12) 2. -4(-6) 3. 7(9) You Try: 4. -2(-7) 5. -4(-4) 6. 8(4) 12

Multiply more than two integers Examples: 7. -4(-5)(-8) 8. -9(-5)(2) You Try: 9. -3(-4)(-5) 10. -5(-6)(3) Simplify or Evaluate Algebraic Expressions using Multiplication Examples: 1.

During a 10-hour period, the temperature in Browning, Montana changed at a rate of - 10 F per hour. If the starting temperature was 44 F, what was the ending temperature after the 10 hours? 14

Dividing Integers Activator: You can find the quotient of -8 (-4) using a number line. To find out how many groups of -4 there are in -8, show -8 on a number line and divide it into groups of -4. a. How many groups of -4 are there? b. What is the quotient of -8 (-4)? c. What multiplication sentence is also shown on the number line? d. Explain how multiplication and division is related. Since multiplication and division are basically the same problem, the same rules apply. Therefore, Dividing Integers with the SAME sign = quotient Dividing Integers with DIFFERENT signs = quotient RECALL: What are two different notations to show 18 divided by 6? Examples: State whether the quotient will be positive or negative, then find the quotient. 1. 32 8 2. 3. 54 3 4. 15

Finding the Mean (Average) for a Set of Data Mean The mean (or average) of a set of data values is the sum of all of the data values divided by the number of data values. That is: Example 1: The scores of seven students on a mathematics test with a maximum possible score of 20 are shown below: Find the mean of this set of data values. Solution: Sum of all data values Mean Number of data values 15 13 18 16 14 17 12 7 105 7 15 So, the mean is 15. You Try: 15 13 18 16 14 17 12 The scores of nine students on a french test that had a maximum possible score of 50 are shown below: Find the mean of this set of data values. 47 35 37 32 38 39 36 34 35 23

Instructions: Find the mean of each set of data, rounding answers to the nearest tenth. (1 place after decimal) 1) 2, 6, 1, -4, 7, 4, 4, 3, -6, 6 2) -4, 0, 3, -9, 0, 4, 5, -3, 9, 9 3) 14, -13, 21, 18, -24 4) 3, 17, 6, 14, 10, 22, 2, 1, 12 5) 30, -24, -30, 42, 24, -60 24

When there s a line use nine! This trick for repeating decimals works each time. 1. Put the repeating pattern on top 2. If it repeats 1 digit use 9, repeats 2 digits use 99; repeat 3 digits use 999, etc. So. 72 = 28

When comparing and ordering rational numbers, you must either get a common denominator or change both fractions to decimals. Example: Compare 4 3 and 6 5 Method 1: Finding a common denominator Method 2: Changing to decimals 29
